Joseph Jimenez

Biography

 Jimenez joined Novartis in 2007 as Division Head of Novartis Pharmaceutical and was named CEO in 2010[5] by his predecessor and Chairman Daniel Vasella. Since joining Novartis, Jimenez has increasingly applied standard business metrics to pharma cash flow, purchasing and competitive bidding, confident that his experience in consumer goods will help to realize improvements in Novartis' operations. His cost-cutting moves, focused mostly on marketing and administration, have come steadily, with more than a billion cut in 2010, and even more than that in 2011. Jimenez joined Board of Directors at General Motors on June 9, 2015
